Description

This change is required for the Crowd delegated authentication feature where the user details are only retrieved upon the first successful authentication.

The proposed change is to authenticate the user first before retrieving the user details in the login(..) method. Only retrieve the user details after the authentication is successful. The implication is that classes overriding authenticate(..) must handle the case where the user is not found, and return false.
